Does anyone know which wheel the speed sensor is on? I figure maybe if it's on the passenger side wheel, maybe is has dirt and grime and brake fluid all over it. Maybe that's why it's not reading.

 

Dude, check if you have 4w ABS, just like zman said. Is there a 2nd wire going to each front? The other being the brake line. I doubt you have 4w ABS. It's a 2 second check.

A picture showing the leakage would go a looooong way. Almost seems like you have a mix of things going on same time. Tranny shift/speed sensor kaput, TV cable loose, jostled loose the passenger inner seal. If it is gear oil coming out, then did it start after you were parked with front passenger sloped down? Or are we talking you've been level and it just happened?

 

One on each side in the front. If your speedo stopped working, that would be the one in the top of the rear diff, right in the center. (on the pig, it reads a tone ring on the carrier)

You have multiple problems going on there. The trans light is whining about trans TEMP, have you deleted the check valve on the trans cooler lines yet?

To see if it is indeed brake fluid leaking out, grab a warm body, park 'em in the drivers seat, start the engine, and STAND on the brake. Check and see if you have fluid flowing.

Check fluid level in front diff. Gear lube smells BAD. Take a whiff of your puddle, if it smells like rotten eggs, that's gear lube.... (sulfur dioxide smell.)

Brake and ABS lites will come on if the PCM isn't getting a signal from the speed sensor. (the one in the rear diff.) You may have a blown axle seal, bad rear wheel speed sensor, and a clogged check valve in the trans line.

 

If you have 4 wheel abs there will be a sensor on BOTH front wheels. If you only have RWAL brakes, the sensor is on top of the rear diff. Do us all a favor and yourself and get the build sheet. Not to mention getting a manual. As far as I'm concerned, you have have multiple issues that don't even relate to this problem(from the posts I've seen in the past) . You need to start fixing them one by one, or all you are doing is spitting into the wind.

This is a bad picture, but you can see in the bottom right the liquid pooling- http://imgur.com/RYQgOyd

Here's a little better shot of it, you can see the liquid pooling- http://imgur.com/YQ8oDDq

This was the color of the fluid- http://imgur.com/ktPv5Bm
It's a goldish bronze, looks a lot like brake fluid.


So i'm thinking that the piston seal is bad, maybe even a brake line. And I'm still researching the speedo thing, but could it be the Transmisson speed sensor? From what I've read it's a VSS and can cause bad shifting, as well as the speedo going out.

 

Sniff it. Have you checked your reservoir yet?

 

Sniffed it, no rotten egg smell. So it's not gear lube. Just smell's like oil. Checked brake fluid reservoir and it's a tad bit under full.

 

I would hazard a guess and say....BRAKE FLUID. lol

 

Yeah im like 99% sure it's brake fluid. Can't confirm yet because I can't find the source of the leak yet. Do you guys think the Trans speed sensor though is accurate?
